BTW, I spoke with an MA online and she reaffirmed what my local MA said about the creme bronzers: They will NOT cause breakouts and are just fine with oily skin. Anybody worried about this can relax now. :3

On another random note, I went to my local free-standing store to ask about a dupe for Kumquat, and lo and behold, not only did they have 13 (!!) of them left, but they had 20+ Gold Dusts, several of the Colour 3 (purple) palettes, tons of Fresh Salmon, and much more. No more blushes though :/ Since Kumquat is HG status for me, guess who's on Team Backup now.

Anyone who has touched these will know that there is absolutely no greasiness to them. It really is cream-to-powder. I have no idea how that works chemically, but the moment the product hits my skin it feels like a powder. Like magic.

I'm only going to get Get-Away Bronze blush but now I really like the way Hipness looks in the green packageing!! I told myself I'm not suppose to get it because I have Coralista.
Which one would I grab for more often? Coralista or Hipness?

What items do you guys think will sell out the quickest? (other than Marine Life cause I'm definitely getting that first) I'm only able to get 2 items the day it's released online.
Items I'm definitely getting:
Splashing Lipglass
Flurry of Fun Lipglass
Thrills Lipstick
Funbathing Lipstick
Firecracker Eyeshadow
Sweet & Punchy Eyeshadow
Float On By Eye Kohl
Sun Rush Lustre Drops

Marine Life is already sold out in pre-sales here in San Francisco at the smaller Nordstrom. I went to the other counter at Macys' that is taking pre-orders as well. They still had it in stock but there weren't many left when she opened up the drawer. I liked the way that the MA actually rang up my order so she made sure I would get everything that I want. I think I'll stick with that counter in the future.
I had an issue once before at Nordstrom where they ran out of a LE item because they ended up taking too many pre-orders.
In any case, I really like Marine Life.

I checked the UK site to guess what would sell out first based on what sold out there first. The only product that is sold out on ur list there is Marine Life. The collect there as been out for about 3 weeks I think.
The n I checked the German website....alot was was sold out there, from ur list: Sun rush, Flurry of Fun l/g, Thrills l/s, Float on by e/k. But I am pretty sure that North America will get more stock than German, I asume it will be more compariable to the Uk site.
Based on hype I think Thrills l/s or Flurry of Fun l.g will sell out the fastest...I think with the other products u will at least have a week or two longer to pick up.

See, this has me a little worried. I have both a freestanding store AND a Nordies in the same mall 15 minutes away, but I almost exclusively shop at the freestanding store. Every time I've asked if I can pre-order/hold stuff, they say to call two days before, just come in, or wait until the appointment I have on the 28th. Call me paranoid but I'm going to both call AND come in first thing Thursday. I don't trust Marine Life and the 131 brush will be there come the 28th, and I'd be PISSED if I waited and the two weren't held for me.

^^If they tell you that everytime, they probably tell everyone that. I'd suggest calling 2 days ahead, or better yet, order online on Tuesday the 25th. You might have to wait a couple of days to get your powder, but that's better than missing out, right?

I can't order online--the hubby and I are refinancing our mortgage and he's forbidden any purchases that aren't cash so the mortgage companies have no reason to deny our app. >_< But you're right, they're probably telling everyone that. I'll just call.

Thanks for the info. I'll probably get Flurry of Fun first then, I want it a lot more than I want Thrills. I'm still not sure if Thrills will look good on me since I'm cool toned and really pale.
